received if they are mailed to any such agency under
a postmark no later than October 14.
Each tender must be in the amount of $1,000 or a
multiple thereof, and must state the price offered, if it
is a competitive tender, or the term ‘ ‘ noncompetitive, ’ ’

Public announcement will be made of the amount
and price range of accepted tenders. Those submitting
tenders will be advised of the acceptance or rejection

serves the right to accept or reject any or all tenders,
in whole or in part, and his action in any such respect
shall be final. Subject to these reservations noncom­
petitive tenders for $200,000 or less will be accepted in
full at the average price (in two decimals) of accepted
competitive tenders. This price may be 100.00, or
more or less than 100.00.
Commercial banks, which for this purpose are de­
fined as banks accepting demand deposits, may submit
tenders for account of customers provided the names




of the customers are set forth in such tenders. Others
than commercial banks will not be permitted to submit
tenders except for their own account.
Tenders will be received without deposit from
commercial and other banks for their own account,

able by the payment date, the allotment will be can­
celed and the deposit with the tender up to 5 percent
of the amount of notes allotted will be subject to for­
feiture to the United States.
Nonbank investors should understand that their
checks will constitute payment only if they are fully
and finally collected by the payment date, Friday,
October 22, 1971. Checks not so collected will subject
the investor’s deposit to forfeiture as set forth in the
preceding paragraph. A check payable other than
at a Federal Reserve Bank received on the payment
date will not constitute immediately available funds
on that date. Accordingly, in order that a check will
constitute immediately available funds to the Treas­
ury by the payment date, it should be submitted suffi­
ciently in advance to assure completion of its col­

lection by Friday, October 22, 1971. Checks should
be drawn to the order of the office to which the tender
is submitted. I f a check for the full amount of the
payment is submitted with the subscription, it should
be, in the case o f tenders at a competitive price,
equal to the total purchase price of the notes bid for,
or, in the case of noncompetitive tenders, equal to the
full face amount of the notes bid for. Bidders on a
noncompetitive basis who submit checks for the face
amount of the notes bid for will be (1) required to pay
an additional amount if the purchase price is more
than 100, or (2) paid the difference if the purchase
price is less than 100.
Commercial banks are prohibited from making un­
secured loans, or loans collateralized in whole or in

part by the notes bid for, to cover the deposits re­
quired to be paid when tenders are entered, and they
will be required to make the usual certification to that
effect. Other lenders are requested to refrain from
making such loans.
All bidders are required to agree not to purchase or
to sell, or to make any agreements with respect to the
purchase or sale or other disposition of the notes bid
for under this offering at a specific rate or price, until
after 1 :30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Friday,
October 15, 1971.
